Abstract
We consider the notion of a signed magic array, which is an rectangular array with the same number of filled cells in each row and the same number of filled cells in each column, filled with a certain set of numbers that is symmetric about the number zero, such that every row and column has a zero sum. We attempt to make progress toward a characterization of for which there exists such an array. This characterization is complete in the case where and in the case where ; we also characterize three-fourths of the cases where .
